I got started on the wing retracts yesterday. My left gear well (right panel) somehow ended up with unparallel sides for the strut length between the wheel and the mechanism. Something I'll have to fix as it will bug me otherwise. I'm also debating on whether I should stick a couple of dowels through the gear mounts into the cores... I picked up some dowel today. What do you guys say?

Next I'll have to make a shaft for the pushrods to the wing root as well as the servo wells for both the gear and the ailerons. I'm a little undecided about the aileron setup since two servos might actually be lighter than one servo centered behind the gear servo with torque rods (these weigh more than a micro servo!). Food for thought... any suggestions out there?

I'm also not sure about servo's yet. HS-55's, HS-65HB's, HS-82's... I think I will be using Hitec's as I'm not in the mood to drop $ on JR servos. Perhaps those Tower/Hobbico servos might also do nicely although they are a little pricier. Something sub $20 would be nice considering I'll have 6-7 of these in there!

Maybe 55's for ailerons, 65's for elevator and rudder, a 55 for throttle and nose gear and an 82MG for main gear... would that work?

BTW, she will ride on trike gear.
